Description
Vimal Ramanuj and co-authors model gas flow and transfer inside hollow fibre bundles for gas separation in a 2026 study. Such modules clean gases by letting chosen gases pass through fibre walls. The team studied bundle-scale flow, where uneven channels and direction effects shape how well gases move and separate.
Results show a trade-off between purity and recovery, the authors report. Smaller fibres give more surface area and higher purity, yet gases reach less deeply into tight bundles, which hurts overall performance. Measures such as a permeability tensor and Sherwood number capture the direction effects. The authors highlight settings where gains balance best. Better bundle design could cut losses and pressure needs in plant-scale modules.
